One way around this is to inhibit the 'initial' xterm by
defaults write org.x.x11 app_to_run 'true'
then start xterms from the X11 Menu.

...but when X11 starts up and creates its initial xterm (and
sometimes for
one or two more xterms), they come up with black text on a white
background
(e.g., the default). It seems to me that .Xresources should be read/
loaded
before applications are launched, no?
This has been the case since Leopard's X11 came out, through all the
versions and in 2.3.1_rc1. It's only a mild annoyance to me (I tend to
remember what I'm doing in xterms based on the command-key that
brings them
forward, and so hitting command-N a bunch of times and then having
to close
the first couple is a bit of a pain, but the deeper implications may
be
worth considering.
